I chose Edinburgh as my first marathon on the recommendation of a few of my friends. I’m so glad I chose this event, not just for the run itself but the atmosphere all weekend in Edinburgh. This really is a family orientated weekend with events from 1k for the Littlies all the way to marathon distance.

If you are looking for your first marathon and/or an event for all the family to get involved in then I would book on to Edinburgh Marathon Festival.
